A helipad is a designated area for helicopters to land and take off. It can be found on rooftops, hospitals, or open fields, and is often marked with a large "H" symbol. Helipads are designed to provide a safe and efficient space for helicopter operations, ensuring that they can operate in urban and remote locations. Helipads are equipped with safety features such as lighting for nighttime use and sometimes even firefighting equipment. They are crucial for emergency services, allowing quick access to medical facilities, and are also used for transportation in areas where traditional runways are not available, enhancing connectivity in various regions.
